Garbage in some tags on VGMdb.

[Lichtenshtein]

I presume there have been changes on the site again since last script update, as the parser is capturing garbage from the web page in these fields:

ARTIST, COMPOSER, ALBUMARTIST

HTML version.

I see you use the html version, why don't use the JSON version its mutch better. i stopped working in the html version as i made the Json version.

why don't use the JSON version its mutch better

1) How to choose romaji in JSON version? 2) No ARTIST, COMPOSER fields... 3) Periodic problems with accessing vgmdb.info - it loads on the third attempt, sometimes for some reason it is not available at all. It was like that yesterday when i was testing.

This one is great too, but

• No romaji for the first link i tested it on (my first post)
• All artist credits go into one field and one line like this:

INVOLVEDPEOPLE: Artist:NITTY GRITTY;Vocal:Rino Kishimori;Keyboard:Rino Kishimori;Drums:Akio Imaizumi;Percussion:Akio Imaizumi;Bass:Tooru Kasuya;Guitar:Hitoshi Asou;Chorus:NITTY GRITTY;Words:Yumi Morita, Yuu Kureko, Shizuka Psyche, Izumi;Music:Tetsushi Ryu, Akira Odakura <...>

and

VGMDB_ALL_CREDITS: Artist:NITTY GRITTY;Vocal:Rino Kishimori;Keyboard:Rino Kishimori;Drums:Akio Imaizumi;Percussion:Akio Imaizumi;Bass:Tooru Kasuya;Guitar:Hitoshi Asou;Chorus:NITTY GRITTY;Words:Yumi Morita, Yuu Kureko, Shizuka Psyche, Izumi;Music:Tetsushi Ryu, Akira Odakura <...>

Your HTML script seems more useful. JSON version shows this:

Server connection error: vgmdb.info

> 500: Internal Server Error

Ah, I see. The result overall is different from album to album. Apparently i was unlucky with the very first album i tested. A rather inconvenient source this VGMDB is...
